ANNISTON, Ala. (AP) — An Anniston man insisted he was innocent after he was sentenced to three terms of life in prison for the shooting deaths of two people and injuring a third.

The Anniston Star reports that Preston Louis Moore told victims' family members he would appeal the verdict after he was sentenced on Tuesday. He said: "Your loved ones' blood is not on my hands."

He was originally convicted in 2007 of shooting to death Eugene Johnson and Xerxes Stanford and shooting Tationna Williams in the face during a 2003 burglary. But an Alabama appeals court overturned those convictions two years later, concluding that his rights were violated during the trial.

Moore was again found guilty of all three counts during last week's trial.
